Propaganda Prints: A History of Art in the Service of Social and Political Change
Propaganda Prints reviews the history, cultural diversity and artistic legacy of art produced in the service of social and political change from ancient times to the present day. The author presents the arts of state control, of opposition, of revolution, of advertising, politics and self-promotion in their historical contexts, with three hundred images to evoke some of the dreams and concerns which have driven humanity through the last five thousand years. The Ancient Mesopotamians are there with the Romans, the Crusaders, the Normans, the Victorians, the Suffragettes, the Nazis and the Hippies. The American, French, Russian, Mexican, Chinese and Cuban revolutions all contribute as do many, far too many, wars. From Gutenberg’s printing press to You Tube, from Alexander to Obama, this review of propaganda art reflects the best and the worst of us, and offers the pictures by way of consolation.Read more

Conform To Deform: The Weird And Wonderful World Of Some Bizzare
Along with Factory, Mute, and Creation, Some Bizzare was the vanguard of outsider music in the 1980s. The label s debut release reads like a who s who of electronic music, featuring early tracks from Soft Cell, Depeche Mode, Blancmange, and The The, while over the next decade its roster would include artists such as Marc Almond, Cabaret Voltaire, Einsturzende Neubauten, Foetus, Swans, Coil, and Psychic TV. For a time, Some Bizzare was the most exciting independent record label in the world, but the music is only half of the story. Self-styled label boss Stevo Pearce s unconventional dealings with the industry are legendary. Sometimes they were playful (sending teddy bears to meetings in his place), other times less so (he and Marc Almond destroyed offices at Phonogram and terrorised staff). Despite this, he was a force to be reckoned with. His preternatural ability to spot talent meant his label was responsible for releasing some of the decade s most forward-thinking, transgressive, and influential music. The Some Bizzare story spans the globe: from ecstasy parties in early 80s New York to video shoots in the Peruvian jungle, from events in disused tube stations to seedy sex shows in Soho. There were million-selling singles, run-ins with the Vice Squad, destruction at the ICA, death threats, meltdowns, and, of course, sex dwarves. For a time, Stevo had the music industry in the palm of his hands, only for it all to slip through his fingers. But he and Some Bizzare left a legacy of incredible music that still has an influence and impact today.Read more

BLM Permit Processing
The bounty and beauty of the American West has stirred the hopes and dreams of generations of Americans. The vast economic potential of the West was only a dream in 1804 when President Thomas Jefferson sent Lewis and Clark on their now famous and well documented journey. A little over 30 years later in 1837, Washington Irving published the epic following the adventures of the famous explorer, Captain Bonneville, in what would later become known as the Wyoming Territory. He searched for the fabled Tar Springs. After a great ordeal the men in his party discovered a slow stream of oil at the foot of a sand bluff just east of the Wind River Mountains. Fifty years later a Pennsylvania born Irishman named Mike Murphy drilled the first well in the Wyoming Territory on the very same spot. These examples of exploration and discovery began a transformation of American society that still rings true today. Today we have over 2.45 million acres of Western lands managed by the Bureau of Lands Management. It’s important that these lands are properly managed for the creation of wealth and prosperity for our Nation, the preservation of our environment and our way of life.Read more

BLM: Breathe, Learn, Maneuver: A Strategical Approach To Overcoming Oppression
Breathe, Learn, Maneuver: A Strategical Approach To Overcoming Oppression,
Best Selling Author Terry Wayne“I like the solution-based approach to overcoming the hands we are dealt. It gives hope, courage, and motivation for creating the world we see and live in. Life CAN suck, period. But it doesn’t have to. BLM is a book of empowerment but relative to anyone living in today’s society.”
-Katrina B., ASDS, Educator,& TV Personality“This book was very inspirational. There are some very good suggestions and tips to help you be more productive in every area of your life. I look forward to hearing more from Terry Wayne.”
-M.S., Business Executive, Youth Pastor, Little League CoachSelf-empowerment is the transformative concept that realigns and reignites the energy needed for change and leads us toward liberating new ways of thinking about ourselves and each other. Ridding yourself of self-sabotaging beliefs requires tapping into your deeply rooted beliefs instilled by the things we pick up consciously—and, more importantly, subconsciously. Harnessing the pain and frustration that come from being held back allows you to channel it into the very outlet that becomes your way out.
There’s a war going on, and the battle begins within. Turn your energy inward; gaining discipline over your characteristics and behaviors, and create a new course of action. Armed with your new game plan, get up, take action, and never look back. New levels require long journeys, but if it’s truly fulfilling, nothing is out of your reach.If you’re like me and don’t feel the need to change, have the urge to fight, or are just flat-out comfortable with where you are, study this book to learn and fight like the lion you need to so you can live like the lamb that you are.
The first book for us, by us.
About The Author
Terry Wayne is the author and co-author of more than five books that deal with personal growth, including the Amazon Kindle bestsellers Take The Leap and CoronaProof. He loves what he does; inspiring other parents, entrepreneurs, and dreamers across the world to keep growing and discover a life that’s truly fulfilling.Coming out ahead can seem impossible, especially when the system is rigged against you. The knowledge I share through these pages offers practical examples of what exactly to do when you find yourself in a “fixed” game. The answer, “Don’t whine about it. Climb up out it.”

BLMLDS: Poetry for the BLM Movement
With God, all things are possible. With our hearts and Jesus in our corner, the world is there for us to change for the better. We have a perfect example and many great examples who followed perfection from Heaven. So I have wondered why there are still people in society who don’t matter. Why aren’t we lifting up those who need it most? Why aren’t calling out racism everywhere and advocating for those who don’t matter? I see many of the youth in the Wards aiming for change and a better world. These loafers on the ground make the future look brighter. We just need to always aim for the infinite brightness we follow.Read more

Blockbusters: Why Big Hits – and Big Risks – are the Future of the Entertainment Business
What is behind the phenomenal success of entertainment businesses such as Warner Bros., Marvel Enterprises and Manchester United – along with such stars as Jay-Z and Lady Gaga? Which strategies give leaders in film, television, music, publishing, and sports an edge over their rivals?
Anita Elberse, Harvard Business School’s expert on the entertainment industry, has done pioneering research on the worlds of media and sports for more than a decade. Now, in this groundbreaking book, she explains a powerful truth about the fiercely competitive world of entertainment: building a business around blockbuster products – the movies, television shows, songs and books that are hugely expensive to produce and market – is the surest path to long-term success. Along the way, she reveals why entertainment executives often spend outrageous amounts of money in search of the next blockbuster, why superstars are paid unimaginable sums and how digital technologies are transforming the entertainment landscape.
Full of inside stories emerging from her unprecedented access to some of the world’s most successful entertainment brands, Blockbusters is destined to become required reading for anyone seeking to understand how the entertainment industry really works – and how to navigate today’s high-stakes business world at large.

Blood & Mistletoe: The History of the Druids in Britain
The acclaimed author of Witches, Druids, and King Arthur presents a “lucid, open-minded” cultural history of the Druids as part of British identity (Terry Jones).
Crushed by the Romans in the first century A.D., the ancient Druids of Britain left almost no reliable evidence behind. Historian Ronald Hutton shows how this lack of definite information has allowed succeeding British generations to reimagine, reinterpret, and reinvent the Druids. Hutton’s captivating book is the first to encompass two thousand years of Druid history and to explore the evolution of English, Scottish, and Welsh attitudes toward the forever ambiguous figures of the ancient Celtic world.Druids have been remembered at different times as patriots, scientists, philosophers, or priests. Sometimes portrayed as corrupt, bloodthirsty, or ignorant, they were also seen as fomenters of rebellion. Hutton charts how the Druids have been written in and out of history, archaeology, and the public consciousness for some 500 years, with particular focus on the romantic period, when Druids completely dominated notions of British prehistory. Sparkling with legends and images, filled with new perspectives on ancient and modern times, this fascinating cultural study reveals Druids as catalysts in British history.

Blood Meridian (Picador Classic Book 32)
Brutally violent, Blood Meridian is the story of one teenage runaway in the nineteenth-century American South, as a sadistic gang unleashes its massacre across the desert land. It is the work that sealed Cormac McCarthy’s reputation as one of the twentieth century’s greatest writers.
‘[A] brilliant, uncompromising work of fiction – imagine if the authors of the King James Bible, their hands guided by Satan, wrote a western’ – The Times
Through the hostile landscape of the Texas–Mexico border wanders the Kid, a fourteen year-old Tennessean who is quickly swept up in the relentless tide of blood.
A group known as the Glanton gang hunt Indigenous Americans, collecting scalps as their bloody trophies. At the centre of this violence stands Judge Holden: a massive, hairless man, mysterious if not supernatural, erudite and cold-blooded. He is singularly extreme in his sadistic violence.
But the apparent chaos is not without order – the Glanton gang, too, are stalked as prey.
Read as both a brilliant subversion of the Western novel and a blazing example of that form, it is a powerful, mesmerizing and savagely beautiful novel – and one of the most important works in American fiction of the last century.
‘In Blood Meridian, McCarthy reaches the peak of his style: spare and ornate at once, repetitious but endlessly readable’ – Guardian
Praise for Cormac McCarthy:
‘McCarthy worked close to some religious impulse, his books were terrifying and absolute’ – Anne Enright, author of The Green Road and The Wren, The Wren
‘His prose takes on an almost biblical quality, hallucinatory in its effect and evangelical in its power’ – Stephen King, author of The Shining and the Dark Tower series
‘[I]n presenting the darker human impulses in his rich prose, [McCarthy] showed readers the necessity of facing up to existence’ – Annie Proulx, author of Brokeback Mountain

Over half of young people between 18-24 in the UK currently identify as “not exclusively heterosexual.” Yet a sizable majority of Christian Churches in the UK, US and Australia still refuse to acknowledge the immutability of most LGBT identities or to engage with the lived realities of LGBT people. This apathy – and sometimes downright hostility – creates a toxic environment for some of our most vulnerable young people, leading to isolation, despair and sometimes, tragically, suicide. This poses the question, does the Church have blood on its hands?Blood on its Hands? should serve as a wake-up call to take LGBT identities and LGBT mental health seriously, to avoid some of the tragedies highlighted in this book. It is intended to be used as an aid to discussion in worship communities.

Blood Royal: Dynastic Politics in Medieval Europe (James Lydon Lectures in Medieval History and Culture)
Throughout medieval Europe, for hundreds of years, monarchy was the way that politics worked in most countries. This meant power was in the hands of a family – a dynasty; that politics was family politics; and political life was shaped by the births, marriages and deaths of the ruling family. How did the dynastic system cope with female rule, or pretenders to the throne? How did dynasties use names, the numbering of rulers and the visual display of heraldry to express their identity? And why did some royal families survive and thrive, while others did not? Drawing on a rich and memorable body of sources, this engaging and original history of dynastic power in Latin Christendom and Byzantium explores the role played by family dynamics and family consciousness in the politics of the royal and imperial dynasties of Europe. From royal marriages and the birth of sons, to female sovereigns, mistresses and wicked uncles, Robert Bartlett makes enthralling sense of the complex web of internal rivalries and loyalties of the ruling dynasties and casts fresh light on an essential feature of the medieval world.Read more
